Notes: | v. 1, p. [vii]: dedication "To the King's most excellent Majesty..." subscribed "April 23, 1766. Charles Morton."; p.ix-xlv: "Editor's preface"; p. [xlvii-xlviii]: "Author's dedication to King Charles II"; p. 1-3: "The writt"; v. 2, p. [453-463]: "Index "; p. [464]: "Advertisement" [of errata]; p. [465-466]: "...notes which refer to p.xv of the preface [by Arthur Onslow]" Whitelock's text presents a scheme of conciliatory parliamentary government, based on cooperation & mutual responsibility of King, Commons & Lords; Morton's preface gives an account of the MS & its author. The t-p appears to be the work of Thomas Hollis (all caps, with raised full stops between each word, reminiscent of Roman inscriptions) although this title is not a documented part of his corpus.
